Apistogramma Agassizi "Fire Red" 3.5cm

Description

Apistogramma Agassizi "Fire Red" is a type of freshwater fish belonging to the Cichlidae family, and more specifically, it is a subcategory of Cichlids. These fish are known for their striking appearance, particularly their vibrant red coloration.

  1. Temperature: Apistogramma Agassizi "Fire Red" thrives in water temperatures between 75 to 84 degrees Fahrenheit (24 to 29 degrees Celsius). Maintaining the appropriate water temperature is crucial for their health and well-being.

  2. Minimum Tank Size: For keeping Apistogramma Agassizi "Fire Red," it is recommended to provide a tank with a minimum size of 30 gallons. Larger tanks can provide more space for the fish and help to create a stable aquatic environment.

Feeding Habits: Apistogramma Agassizi "Fire Red" are omnivorous fish. In the wild, they feed on small insects, invertebrates, and plant matter. In captivity, they readily accept high-quality flake foods, pellets, and live or frozen foods such as bloodworms, brine shrimp, and daphnia. Providing a varied diet will help maintain their health and vibrant coloration.

Habitat Preference: These fish prefer densely planted aquariums with plenty of hiding places such as driftwood, rocks, and caves. They also appreciate a sandy substrate as it mimics their natural habitat. Adding floating plants can help diffuse light and create shaded areas, which they often prefer.

Water pH Level: Apistogramma Agassizi "Fire Red" thrives in slightly acidic to neutral water conditions. Ideally, the pH level should be maintained between 6.0 and 7.0.

Behavior: They are generally peaceful fish, but males can be territorial, especially during breeding. It is best to keep them in pairs or small groups, ensuring that the aquarium has sufficient space and hiding spots to reduce aggression. They can be shy and may appreciate a quieter environment.

Apistogramma Agassizi "Fire Red" is not a schooling fish. They are known to be territorial and may exhibit aggressive behavior, especially during the breeding season. While they are not strictly solitary, they are not known for schooling behavior either.

Proper care and attention to water parameters, diet, and tank setup are essential for maintaining the health and vibrant colors of Apistogramma Agassizi "Fire Red." Regular water changes and a well-maintained aquarium are crucial for their overall well-being.
